How to use the YARPP(Yet Another Related Posts Plugin) in WordPress?

The Yet Another Related Posts Plugin

YARPP is, as the name suggests Yet Another Related Posts Plugin. It is a great plugin to be used to increase readability and viewers in your website. What YARPP is mostly known for is to list posts and pages through relatability, both in your dashboard and website. For example, if you’re reading an article on Developer’s Nation’s website about the YARPP, towards the end of it you’ll find a related posts link. Under this link will be listed all the blog posts about other plugins that we’ve written about. And, if there are no blog posts related to wordpress plugins available, it’ll show posts about wordpress which means the closest related option.

It’s main features according to wordpress are,

-the availability of thumbnails or list view of related content.

-Templating- an advanced control of how your results are displayed.

-advanced and versatile algorithms; this means that YARPP displays all the categories a post falls in, in relation to its tags and content.

-related posts in feed- the one I mentioned above, which is the display of related content in the particular feed.

Also, to add on my personal thoughts I’d say the reason this plugin is so feasible is that it is very easy to access, is free and doesn’t require manual labour. And we all enjoy shortcuts, don’t we?

How do we access it?

For this, I’ll give you a step by step description of what you need to do;

1.Open the page wordpress.org.

2.Go to the plugin directory.

3.Search for YARPP and download the first link.
